This paper presents a technique for determining the optimal number of elements in stochastic finite element analysis based on reliability analysis. Using the change-of-variable perturbation stochastic finite element approach, the probability density function of the dynamic responses of stochastic structures is explicitly determined. This method combines the perturbation stochastic finite element method with the change-of-variable technique into a united model. To further examine the relationships between the random fields, discretization of the random field parameters, such as the variance function and the scale of fluctuation, is also performed. Accordingly, the reliability index is calculated based on the explicit probability density function of responses with Gaussian or non-Gaussian random fields in any number of elements corresponding to the random field discretization. The numerical examples illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method for a one-dimensional cantilever reinforced concrete column and a two-dimensional steel plate shear wall. The benefit of this method is that the probability density function of responses can be obtained explicitly without the use simulation techniques. Any type of random variable with any statistical distribution can be incorporated into the calculations, regardless of the restrictions imposed by the type of statistical distribution of random variables. Consequently, this method can be utilized as a suitable guideline for the efficient implementation of stochastic finite element analysis of structures, regardless of the statistical distribution of random variables.

이 연구의 목표는 학교 건물과 같은 저층 보-기둥 철근콘크리트 구조 건물에서 프리캐스트 벽패널을 사용한 새로운 내진보강 방법을 개발하는데 있다. 1개의 무 보강 보-기둥 실험체와 U형 PC 패널로 보강한 2개의 보강 보-기둥 실험체에 대한 정적 이력 하중실험을 진행하였다. 앵커 접합부 실험체는 전단 파괴될 것으로 해석되었고 철판 용접 접합부 실험체는 휨 파괴할 것으로 예측되었다. 실험체의 종국 내력은 상부 접합부의 전단 내력과 PC 패널 절곡 부 휨 위험단면에서 휨 내력 중 약한 것으로 결정되었다. 이 실험체에서, 한쪽 RC기둥이 가 하중(미는 실험 하중)을 받아 PC 패널 부재를 밀게 된다면, 다른 쪽 내부 수직부재는 상부 전단 접합부로부터 부 하중(당기는 실험 하중)을 받게 되어있었다. 가 하중을 받는 2개의 부재는 합성 휨 거동이 지배적이므로 합성단면의 휨 내력이 실험체의 최종 내력을 결정하게 되지만, 이 경우 최종 내력에 대하여 상부 전단 접합부 강도의 직접적인 영향은 없다고 볼 수 있다. 그러나 부 하중(당기는 하중)을 받는 RC 기둥과 PC 패널 부재는 비합성 거동이 지배적이고 실험체의 최종 내력은 상부 전단 접합부 전단내력의 크기에서 직접 영향을 받는 것으로 파악되었다. ACI 318M-11 Appendix-D 앵커 전단설계에 기초한 전단내력 그리고 실험에서 얻은 최대하중을 적용하여 마이다스 젠 탄성설계에 의하여 계산한 전단 외력에 대한 비교 해석결과는 실험결과와 일치하는 해석결과를 보여주었다.

The purpose of this study is to classify the factors influenced on the damages of head works suffered from the storm flood occurred on July 22 1980 in both Musim and Bochong rivers and to find out an integral counter measures against the causes influenced on the disaster of head works in the engineering aspect of planning, design, construction and maintenance. In this survey, number of samples was taken 25 head Works, and the counter measures against the causes of their disasters summarized was as follows, 1. In the aspect of planning a. As the flood water level after the establishment of head works is more increased than the level before setting of head works owing to having more gentle slope of river bed between the head works than nature slope of river bed. Number of head works should be reduced for the appropriate annexation of them b. In the place where head works is established on the curved point of levee, the destruction of levee becomes severe by the strong deflective current. Therefore the setting of head works on the curved point should be kept off as long as possible and in case of unavoidable circumstances the construction method such as reinforced concrete wall or stone wall filed with concrete and anchored bank revetments should be considered. 2. In the aspect of design a. As scoring phenomena at up stream is serious around the weir Where the concentration of strong current is present in such a place, up stream apron having impermeability should be designed to resist and prevent scoring. b. As the length of apron and protected bed is too short to prevent scoring as down stream bed, the design length should be taken somewhat more than the calculated value, but in the case the calculated length becomes too long to be profitable, a device of water cushion should be considered. c. The structure of protected river bed should be improved to make stone mesh bags fixed to apron and to have vinyl mattress laid on river bed together with the improvement for increasing the stability of stone mesh bags and preventing the sucked sand from the river bed. d. As the shortage of cut-off length, especialy in case of the cutoffs conneting both shore sides of river makes the cause of destruction of embankment and weir body, the culculation of cut-off length should be taken enough length based on seepage length. 3. In the aspect of design and constructions a. The overturing destruction of weir by piping action was based on the jet water through cracks at the construction and expansion joints. therefore the expansion joint should be designed and constructed with the insertion of water proof plate and asphalt filling, and the construction joint, with concaved shape structure and steel reinforcement. b. As the wrong design and construction of the weep holes on apron will cause water piping and weir destruction, the design and construction of filter based on the rule of filter should be kept for weep holes. c. The wrong design and construction of bank revetment caused the severe destruction of levee and weir body resulting from scoring and impulse by strong current and formation of water route behind the revetment. Therefore bank revetment should be designod and constructed with stone wall filled with concrete and anchored, or reinforced concrete wall to prevent the formation of water flow route behind the wall and to resist against the scoring and impulse of strong stream. 4. In the aspect of maintenance When the damaged parts occurred at head works the authorities and farmers concerned should find and mend them as soon as possible with mutual cooperation, and on the other hand public citizen should be guided for good use of public property.

지반구조물에서는 흙과 구조물 사이의 상호 마찰 특성이 구조물에 작용하는 하중과 저항 분석에 큰 영향을 미친다. 일반적으로 지반구조물의 주재료로서 콘크리트 또는 강재가 많이 사용되며, 흙 입자 크기와 비교하여 마찰면의 거칠기 정도에 따라 경계면 마찰 특성이 큰 차이를 보인다. 특히 비신장성 보강재를 사용하는 보강토 옹벽, 말뚝 주면, 옹벽면 등의 지반구조물에 대해서는 흙과 구조물 사이의 마찰특성을 합리적으로 분석하여 구조물의 안전성을 확보하여야 한다. 구조물면과 사질토 사이의 마찰특성에 대하여 보다 정확한 예측식을 제시하고 이 예측식이 가지고 있는 불확실성을 제시하는 것은 지반-지반구조물의 신뢰성 분석에 필수적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존 양질의 연구 문헌들에 보고된 흙과 거칠기가 다른 면 사이의 마찰실험결과를 분석하여, 강재와 사질토 사이의 첨두 경계면 마찰각을 구하는 식을 제안하였다. 첨두 경계면 마찰각을 결정하는 주요인자는 경계면의 상대조도, 흙의 상대밀도, 구속압, 한계상태 경계면 마찰각이다. 본 연구에서 개발한 첨두 경계면 마찰각 예측식에 대한 불확실성을 통계적으로 Goodness-of-fit 시험 결과를 반영하여 평가하였다.
